In the penultimate edition of our short Val Kilmer journey we look at the 1996 action-adventure "The Ghost and The Darkness."

Over the course of the episode Scott, Craig and regular special guest Caleb Knutson (can we still call him a special guest at this point? He is basically just part of the show, right?) talk about the true story the film is based on, how this was a passion project for Kilmer and how, for once, it wasn't him giving the director headaches (that would be Michael Douglas!). Plus we get into the movies dodgy effects, even dodgier politics and dodgier still accents. 

Elsewhere in the episode, the gang get into common silly action tropes, white saviour narratives and there is some brief wrestling chat (amazingly instigated by Craig!). Plus, Scott comes up with the Ken Loach cut of the film and poorly explains a Scots term much to the bemusement of his co-hosts.
